Keep Asking, Seeking, Knocking(A)
7 (B)“Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For (C)everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 9 (D)Or what man is there among you who, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If you then, (E)being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask Him!

Psalm 116:1-4
New King James Version
Thanksgiving for Deliverance from Death
116 I (A)love the Lord, because He has heard
My voice and my supplications.
2 Because He has inclined His ear to me,
Therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.
3 (B)The [a]pains of death surrounded me,
And the [b]pangs of Sheol [c]laid hold of me;
I found trouble and sorrow.
4 Then I called upon the name of the Lord:
“O Lord, I implore You, deliver my soul!”

Joshua 17:14-18
New King James Version
More Land for Ephraim and Manasseh
14 (A)Then the children of Joseph spoke to Joshua, saying, “Why have you given us only (B)one [a]lot and one share to inherit, since we are (C)a great people, inasmuch as the Lord has blessed us until now?”
15 So Joshua answered them, “If you are a great people, then go up to the forest country and clear a place for yourself there in the land of the Perizzites and the giants, since the mountains of Ephraim are too confined for you.”
16 But the children of Joseph said, “The mountain country is not enough for us; and all the Canaanites who dwell in the land of the valley have (D)chariots of iron, both those who are of Beth Shean and its towns and those who are (E)of the Valley of Jezreel.”
17 And Joshua spoke to the house of Joseph—to Ephraim and Manasseh—saying, “You are a great people and have great power; you shall not have only one [b]lot, 18 but the mountain country shall be yours. Although it is wooded, you shall cut it down, and its [c]farthest extent shall be yours; for you shall drive out the Canaanites, (F)though they have iron chariots and are strong.”

7 Now, O Lord my God, You have made Your servant king instead of my father David, but I am a (A)little child; I do not know how (B)to go out or come in. 8 And Your servant is in the midst of Your people whom You (C)have chosen, a great people, (D)too numerous to be numbered or counted. 9 (E)Therefore give to Your servant an [a]understanding heart (F)to judge Your people, that I may (G)discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?”
10 The speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing. 11 Then God said to him: “Because you have asked this thing, and have (H)not asked long life for yourself, nor have asked riches for yourself, nor have asked the life of your enemies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern justice, 12 (I)behold, I have done according to your words; (J)see, I have given you a wise and understanding heart, so that there has not been anyone like you before you, nor shall any like you arise after you. 13 And I have also (K)given you what you have not asked: both (L)riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days.
